03. Gameplay
Day/Night Cycle
A full cycle lasts 10 minutes in real time (approximately 6 min of day, 4 min of night). During the day, surface monsters are passive or less aggressive. At night, special enemies appear and regular monsters are stronger.
Do not stray too far from your base before securing it. Night can catch inexperienced players off guard.
Health System
- ▶Base HP : 20 HP. Increases with levels (+2 HP every 5 levels).
- ▶Regeneration : Only when the hunger gauge is full.
- ▶Death : Your entire inventory and equipment is dropped. You respawn at your bed or the starting spawn.
- ▶Recovery : Return to your place of death to retrieve your items.
Score & Progression
Your score increases by killing enemies, exploring new territories and defeating bosses. The score is purely cosmetic.
04. Exploration
The starting biome. Grass, trees, rivers and occasional villages. Basic resources: wood, stone, leather.
Dense forest with tall trees and abundant vegetation. Jungle wood available. Home of Jungle Ancient.
Randomly generated cave network below the surface. Ores, crystals and increasing dangers the deeper you go.
The lower layers, close to the core. Lava, rare ores and very powerful enemies. The Core can be summoned in any biome.
Snowy biome with extreme temperatures. Snow-covered surface. Home of Crystal Sovereign.
Arid terrain with cacti and red sand. Sparse vegetation. Pharaon's territory.
